At Mac360, Kate MacKenzie and Bambi Hambi had five minutes with the Apple iPhone at MacWorld and pen their impressions in My 5 Minutes Alone With Apple’s New iPhone. Kate MacKenzie first writes, "First, iPhone’s screen is stunning. Absolutely crystal clear, bright, with resolution that will max out many credit card limits. Second, the size feels both small and not small at the same time."
"iPhone feels wider than Apple’s iPod with video, and feels a little thicker, though it’s not. It’s an optical illusion brought about by the full screen."
"Considering that there’s no hard drive inside, iPhone appears to weigh about the same as the low end iPod with video."
Bambi Hambi then agrees, adding, "The screen jumps at you when iPhone is turned on." Later she writes, "I remember checking out the iPod with video when it first came out. The video was good, but I thought, 'Too small for movies or TV shows.' That’s not the case with iPhone. This screen begs to be watched."

"That was it. It was over. 5 minutes, a few scrolls, some taps, some double tapping, and no phone call. I’ll buy one."
